Standing Committees

NDP St. John’s Centre MHA Gerry Rogers says she hopes the select committee of the House of Assembly that all parties approved last Wednesday will get to work sooner rather than later. She wrote to Health Minister Steve Kent this morning, and is encouraged that he has indicated he will be in touch next week to discuss it.

St. John’s Centre MHA Gerry Rogers is proud that all government MHAs voted for the private member’s motion she presented in the House of Assembly yesterday – and she’s looking forward to getting down to work with her colleagues to address the many shortfalls of mental health treatment in the province.

Gerry Rogers, MHA for St. John’s Centre is again supporting the Occupy NL call for the House of Assembly to be open. Rogers addressed the protesters raising the need for our House to use legislative standing committees.
